Question:

Do you have any other landing gear that lefts faster. My friend has a left That lefts so much faster than mine. He can have his 5th wheel hooked up and I’m still lifting mine.

The Bulldog landing gear set you mentioned has been replaced by the Reese kit part # RP500708 which has a travel rate of 9 inches per minute. This is a higher than average speed.

9 inches per minute is actually considered one of the faster sets of landing gear for fifth wheel trailers. The most common set of landing gear out there is the Lippert/Stromberg Carlson/Venture setups and they only move at 3 inches per minutes so the Reese set moving at 3 times that speed is a huge upgrade. This is our fastest option.
